Koch, Jr., Mayor Town of Gulf Stream 246 Sea Road Gulf Stream, Florida 33444 SUBJECT: COUNTYWIDE PLANNING COUNCIL MEETING - JUNE 5, 1987 Dear Mayor Koch: As you are aware, the voters of Palm Beach County last November adopted an amendment to the Charter establishing a Countywide Planning Council. Membership to the Council has been appointed and we are in the organizational phases of our formation. At our last meeting, the Council enthusiastically agreed that it is very important, early in the existence of the Council, to establish an effective working relationship with all the local governments throughout Palm Beach County. Therefore, the Council is extending an invitation to the mayor of each municipality to join them at their meeting on June 5, 1987 starting at 9:00 a.m. in the 7th Floor Conference Room of the Governmental Center in West Palm Beach. At this meeting, Mr. Thomas Pelham, Secretary of the Department of Community Affairs will attend and provide the Council an overview of the State's role in the growth management framework. I am certain that you will find Mr. Pelham's remarks of great interest to you and your community as we all go forward to implement the requirements of the local government planning act. Also, Ms. Susan Philp will be addressing the Council on the Planning Council in Broward County to relate the experiences of how that organization dealt with its responsibility to achieve intergovernmental cooperation and conflict resolution. Ms. Philp was Executive Director of the Broward County Planning Council until her recent appointment to the staff of the Palm Beach County Planning Department. May 22, 1987 Page 2. We look forward to you joining us on June 5th to begin establish- ing the needed cooperative effort amongst all local governments to secure the quality future that we all desire for the citizens of Palm Beach County. Please contact Diane Bethel at 820 -2034 if you plan to attend the meeting.

MINUTES OF THE COUNTYWIDE PLANNING COUNCIL MAY 1, 1987 I. ROLL CALL The Countywide Planning Council was called to order at 9:09 a.m. The roll was called and quorum was present with the following members absent: Ken Adams, Pat Schwab and George Frost. II.

Mr. Bowman moved approval of the Agenda as amended; seconded by Mr. Anthony. Motion carried unanimously. III. APPROVAL OF MINUTES - APRIL 17, 1987 Mr. Glisson moved approval of the Minutes; seconded by Mr. Hasner. Motion carried unanimously. IV. PERSONNEL COMMITTEE REPORT A. Status to Date Mr. Shannon informed the members that the Personnel Committee reviewed the draft language for the advertisement for an Execu- tive Director. After review and modifications, Mr. Shannon was instructed to go forward with the advertisement in the national American Planning Association magazine and the Florida Chapter of APA. Mr. McEaddy informed the members that he was asked to prepare a request for legal counsel to appear in the Palm Beach County Bar. The deadline for placing the ad is June 15th. After further discussion, Mr. Hasner moved that the Personnel Committee short list the two positions and provide ranking of each; seconded by Mr. Bowman. Motion carried unanimously. The Council discussed the legal ad and made modifications (listed below). Countywide Planning Council for Palm Beach County with the responsibility to implement Article 7 of the Palm Beach County Charter desires to hire an attorney or firm with significant experience in Land Use and Governmental Law. Prior representation of public bodies and boards preferred. Please submit proposal for hourly rate, including resume. on how local government's plans would be consistent with the Regional Plan. After considerable discussion, Mr. Cary was asked to have someone from his staff attend each of the meetings. Commissioner Marcus made a motion to extend an invitation to Mr. Cary, as a nonvot- ing member, to assist the Personnel Committee in the selection of the Executive Director in screening candidates and making a recommendation to the Council; seconded by Dr. Anderson. Motion carried unanimously. Dr. deHaven -Smith and the By- Laws /Rules Committee were charged with coming up with a reference document that would serve as a checklist when they look at the 38 plans that will be submitted to them. VII. ATTORNEY REPORT A. Financial Disclosure Information was passed out regarding financial disclosure. This item had to be researched further. Each member was asked to review it for discussion at the next meeting. B. Meeting Notice Requirements The procedure to be used for notification of meetings was dis- cussed. It was requested that Mr. Cary and the 37 mayors be included on the mailing list. VIII. INSURANCE COVERAGE Mr. Baird passed out copies of a letter addressing this issue. Preliminary investigations show that the Council will come under the County's insurance program but they need to research it further. The Council discussed the conflict of having their meeting on July 3rd. After discussion, the Council decided to leave the date for July 3rd and discuss it at the next meeting. The next meeting will be June 5th at 9:00 a.m. After further discussion, it was decided that they would invite someone from DCA to come and explain where the growth management legislation is going and send out a letter to each chief elected official of all 38 units of government. It was also suggested that Ms. Susan Philp of the County's Planning Division be at the next meeting to tell them of her experience with the Broward County Planning Council. MINUTES OF THE BYLAWS /RULES COMMITTEE MAY 1, 1987 The ByLaws /Rules Committee was called to order at 11:41 A.M. with Commissioner Marcus absent.

Section 7 is not an onerous hold harmless agreement as the hold harmless is limited to negligence of the Town. I would recommend however some minor amendments in that section. I would recommend that the section be amended to read as follows: "Section 7. The city, its officials, agents, or employees in providing police dispatching and communication services shall not be deemed to assume any liability for acts, omissions or negligence of the Town, its employees, agents or officials. The Town shall hold the city harmless and shall defend them against any claims for damages resulting from acts, omissions or negligence of officials, agents or employees of the Town. Further, the Town, in entering into this agreement shall not be deemed to assume any liability for acts, omissions or negligence of the city, its employees, agents or officials. The city shall hold the Town harmless and shall defend them against any claims for damages resulting from acts, omissions or negligence of officials, agents or employees of the city. All liability for injury to personnel and for lass or damage of equipment incurred in connection with this agreement, or in the performance of services or functions pursuant thereto, shall be borne by the city or the Town employing such personnel or owning such equipment and each entity shall carry sufficient insurance to cover all such liabilities. Certificates of insurance shall be submitted to the office of the attorney for both the city and the Town and shall be in a form and amounts acceptable to each entity." I have suggested that we eliminate Section 11 as I do not feel it is necessary in a contract of this kind, particularly where either party may terminate the agreement upon 60 -days written notice and further where each party is holding the other harmless for negligence of its own agents or representatives. If you need anything further in regard to this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Ocean Boulevard Stream, Florida 33444 Re: Club Wellfield North of Place Au Soleil Dear Jim: You may remember me in connection with our working out some easement problems a few years back relative to the 100 foot strip north of Place Au Soleil Subdivision. I'm now touching base as President of Place Au Soleil Association, Inc., our local Homeowners Association, with regard to an old minor problem which now, apparently, has the potential for becoming more serious. This involves the subject of transients living off Federal Highway in the woods of the Club's Wellfield property north of Place Au Soleil. While this has occurred off and on for quite a few years, the problem was at most, an occasional one, involving, typically, a single transient person. Over the past year, however, with the establishment of a "day labor" employment service off Gulfstream Boulevard a couple blocks west of the property, the problem has considerably increased in magnitude. Over this past season, continuing even now, there appear to be from two to twelve persons living in the woods on the Club property. They've established quite a campsite, utilizing air mattresses, conventional mattresses and carpeting for sleeping purposes but, apparently, have yet to sign a contract for garbage and waste collection. While the Directors of our Association are not unmindful of the problems of the disadvantaged, we are unanimously concerned about the potential for growth of this colony and crimes against property and persons which may result therefrom. One of our residents recently found a rope artfully formed into a hangman's noose near the intersection of the road running through the Club property and the FIND property to the east. This is disturbingly Mr. James Briggs June 8, 1987 Page 2 close (within 150 feet or so) to where my three daughters, all of whom are under age eleven, play in their backyard. Because our Association Directors are fearful of waiting until "something happens" before taking action, they have unanimously requested me to seek the Club's approval for the Association to post appropriate "No Trespassing" signs on the Club's property and to request that the Club send a letter to Chief Greer requestng him to enforce all appropriate laws relative to any transients who may ignore such posted warnings. Our Association would be most appreciative of any support the Club can give us in this regard. Cordially, Robert A. Dittman RAD:dr cc: Hon. James Greer Hon. William F. Koch, Jr. Hon. Alan I.

I would recommend however some minor amendments in that section. I would recommend that the section be amended to read as follows: "Section 7. The city, its officials, agents, or employees in providing police dispatching and communication services shall not be deemed to assume any liability for acts, omissions or negligence of the Town, its employees, agents or officials. The Town shall hold the city harmless and shall defend them against any claims for damages resulting from acts, omissions or negligence of officials, agents or employees of the Town.

WHEREAS, the City Council of Palm Beach Gardens, is of the opinion that a seven (7) person County Commission can better serve the electors of the County by preventing the adoption of laws and the conduct of business by two (2) members when a minimum quorum of three (3) members are present, as can presently be done; Commissioners will become more responsive to the needs of their respective District, with sufficient balance of the two (2) Commissioners elected at large to protect the interest of the electors throughout the County; and, that such proposed seven (7) member Board will aid in the prevention of political power bases now existing in areas of the County. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLORIDA: Section 1. The City Council of the City of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, wholeheartedly endorses the efforts of the "Citizens for Seven County Commissioners ", to establish a referendum election whereat the Electors of Palm Beach County may vote to amend the Palm Beach County Charter to provide for a seven (7) member County Commission whereby five (5) commissioners would be elected by the Electors of the District from which they run for office; and, two (2) of whom would be elected by the Electors of the County at Large. Further, the City Council supports and urges the adopting of the proposed Charter Amendment. Section 2. The City Clerk shall furnish certified copies of this Resolution to those persons as the Mayor shall direct. Section 3. This Resolution shall be effective upon date of passage.
